Mike's Story
Life
m.diiorio at sympatico.ca
Worst thing that ever happened to me = losing my twenty year old son to complications arising from a heart transplant.
Best thing that ever happened to me = having two such wonderful children... my daughter has since given me two beautiful granddaughters which I consider to be an added bonus in my life.
Lost my Dad October 24th 2006, so the holidays were a bit strange this year but I'm pulling myself back together.

intense learning experience, combined with two jobs, one teaching first aid and CPR... I don't know how I got through it all, but I enjoyed it.
I certified as an emt-paramedic (later working for many different companies, Urgences Santé, as well as a few rescue squads. My ongoing professional training in all fields combined has averaged about three full-time months per year over my carreer...
Workplace
I'm a writer...
I developped a taste for literature in both official languages (I am fluent in both written and spoken French as well as English).
From director of communications for a wide variety of organizations (E.M.T.A.Q., chamber of commerce, political candidates, events, etc.) to copywriting was a small step. In fact, I've since combined traditional literary services to my online Webhosting and creation services.
Additionally, I write and publish poetry as well as other forms of literary expression.
